...Section 431(a) of the bill says that the IRS must divulge taxpayer identity information, including the filing status, the modified adjusted gross income, the number of dependents, and "other information as is prescribed by" regulation. That information will be provided to the new Health Choices Commissioner and state health programs and used to determine who qualifies for "affordability credits."

Yikes!

A reaction...

Over at the Institute for Policy Innovation (a free-market think tank and presumably no fan of Obamacare), Tom Giovanetti argues that: "How many thousands of federal employees will have access to your records? The privacy of your health records will be only as good as the most nosy, most dishonest and most malcontented federal employee.... So say good-bye to privacy from the federal government. It was fun while it lasted for 233 years."

I can't believe anyone in good conscience could vote for such horrific legislation.

Gosh, its only been about 2 years since Congress enacted the HIPPA regulations forcing physicians to implement another layer of paperwork to insure that personal information is kept private.

(Has anyone ever read that stuff or do you just sign it like me?)

Now Congress wants to share my tax information with various unknown bureaucrats to be named at a later date.

financial Information is only valuable if only certain people have access to certain information. If every person's income tax info was posted on the web then no one would care except the cheats and the crooks.

Yeah, that pesky ol' 4th amendment:The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
